Average course that needs some work.

I could see at one time this course must have been pretty nice since the Senior Tour actually played here for two years. Layout and difficulty were moderate. Even though there's water on every hole, it didn't come in to play that often. Small greens that definitely need some attention. Tees were flat, but need some work too as many lacked adequate grass. I would give this course another chance if improvements were made.

Great layout and fun course for the value

Had the whole course to ourselves really. Course needs updating and maintenance but for the value and great layout, I would play this course everyday if I could. Can’t beat the price. Water on almost every hole. Enjoyed it a lot. Wife had a great time. Surprisingly, they had new really fast carts.

Great value

Great course. Water on every hole which was very cool. Had the whole course to ourselves. Course needs a lot of work but the layout was great. Very fun course if you don’t mind it being pristine. Enjoyed hitting the ball. Would definitely come back if in town. Golf carts were super fast.

We have had rain

I have played this course many times I get a good price on Golf now the staff is great. The cards run great and this year the fairways are beautiful. However, the reason you get a good price is the traps and the greens need a lot of work. This is not a problem for me because I’m an average golfer And I find the course splendid for a hacker like me. I can put anywhere and I can take my wedge to the beach.

Redoing all greens.

Ever hole has the green in the fairway as they repair the greens. Worth $10. Not 20$ after fees.

With consideration that the course is being renovated, I think it is coming along well and is a good deal.

18 Temporary Greens

I'm really glad that Capitol One Shopping found me a coupon code that knocked a $12.00 tee time (lol) down to a whopping $3.72 with tax. Having played the course once last year and knowing it was an uninspiring course, I figured for less than $4 anything was a steal.

The tee boxes and fairways were...whatever. They were definitely not good, but nothing that overwhelmingly screamed "goat track." But then I approach the green on #1...and it's a temporary green on the fairway short of the overgrown main green. And then the same thing on #2. And #3. And EVERY HOLE afterwards. I have never seen anything like it before.

These "greens" were cut a little shorter and there was some effort made to differentiate them from the fairways, but not a lot. It was clearly (mediocre) fairway grass that was just a cut a little shorter to make really crappy, lumpy, and slow greens. I noticed too that the scorecards actually were printed to reflect the new shorter distances (tee boxes appeared to be mostly tipped out in response), which seemed to tell me that this is going to be a long-term thing.

The pros are that I paid only $3.72 and that it was WIDE open (not shocking based on course conditions). That's about it. If I paid even the $12, I was marching into the clubhouse after the front 9 and demanding a refund. I ended up playing the full 18 and didn't say anything to the staff. Something is seriously wrong with that course and I don't think it's getting remotely better anytime soon. Either way, that it the last time I will ever play there, for any price.

Under Construction

All greens were under repair. Temporary greens were in front of the greens in the fairways. This course should be closed until it is playable. The best thing the course could do is turn it into a practice range. They should have to disclose the condition of this course to the public and a warning issued before green fees are charged. Anyone who knows the condition of this course would never pay to play here.

You should have read the reviews, low fees are an indication of something out of the norm. The course is in the process of repair.
